haha what the hell were you doing out here 1am on a sunday? Hunting?

Yea if it isnt rabbits, turbo bunnies (first time i saw a hare i couldnt stop laughing, they run along normal but as soon as a dog gets close they hit boost and go from 30km to about 100km in half a second - hence turbo bunnies :)) or kangaroos then its peoples stray dogs, shits me off people dont keep their dogs locked up at night, one night im going to hit one and probably get shot :D

Haha.. just one of them randon drives that end up in random places...

Un(spotted): My silver R33 S2 (YDT...) being at Trojan just short of 2 months now (!!!) :) I know I asked for some parts to be ordered which added another 7-10 days, but far out - two months. :\ Never been this long without the car. I'm wondering if something untoward has happened and they are looking for something similar-looking in Japan to import to give back to me instead :thumbsup:

Anyone been out that way getting serviced and noticed it hanging around?

</RANT> Anyway, I think the guys are doing their best... must just be (VERY) busy, I'm just missing it... ;)

spotted your car yesterday at trojan, i was in there visiting my car. john was working on it on the hoist while i was there. mine has been there over 3 months now heh. was going to be ready early this week but now its had another set back, not their fault... :)

Cool :) I just got mine back today. It's been so long since I've driven it, but the problems it went in with have gone away. So far it drives well!

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
